Up State Milk Notes 
Pennollville, Oswego County, N. Y., is 
ereetiug a new $60,000 milk evaporating 
plant whereby producers will be indepen¬ 
dent of milk shipping stations. Large 
factories and creameries of this vicinity 
and the large chocolate works at Oswego 
and Fulton, together with the new evapo¬ 
rator, will take care of the greater part 
of the milk produced in this section reg¬ 
ularly, or in emergencies. The Caynga 
County Milk Producers’ Association has 
appointed a committee to conduct an in¬ 
vestigation as to freight tariffs and 
wholesale costs of feed, with the view of 
buying for their members in carload lots. 
The L>airymen”s League branch of this 
locality is taking similar action, and 
Farm Bureau Agent Weatherby has 
promised his co-operation in such an. 
effort. 
Feed prices are more alarming than 
ever, the highest quotation at pi*esent be¬ 
ing $4.50 per cwt. for corn. Farmers 
everywhere are planning a grainless or 
near grainless ration for milch cows the 
coming Winter. This together with the 
unusual slaughter of milch cows because 
of low prices for milk and high prices for 
feed, will make the milk flow far below 
normal when the cows come in from pas¬ 
ture. Because retail milk dealers have 
raised the price of bottled milk ten cents 
a quart, Cortland’s Common Council has 
ordered a probe of the milk situation, and 
plans are suggested for a centralized 
milk depot to supply the entire city with 
milk with carefully routed deliveries. 
As an example of making the most of 
waste by-products the works of the 
Beardsly Co-operative Creamery of Wil- 
let is worthy of notice. This creamery 
has large quantities of whey which is free 
to patrons. But as considerable was un¬ 
used each day a skilled Italian cheese- 
maker has been engaged to take the un¬ 
used whey each day as it comes fresh; 
from the vats, and make it into cheese. 
By subjecting it to a very high tempera¬ 
ture a soft curd is secured. This is molded 
into small cheese of about the size and 
shape of a three pound lard pail. The 
only salting given is by rubbing each 
cheese with dry salt. About 90 cheeses a 
day is the present output. Some of these 
are put directly into the cooler, and shipped 
when only 24 hours old, to be retailed 
and eaten while fresh and soft. Others 
are dried until quite hard. These are 
grated and used with macaroni, spaghet¬ 
ti, and similar foods, having acquired a 
distinct tang in the drying. Such cheese 
used to retail at 12 cents per pound, but 
now sells for about 16 cents. This cream¬ 
ery paid $2,254 for April milk, and $2,118 
for May. Union Valley creamery paid 
$2..36 for milk averaging 3.2% butterfat. 
Their price for May was $2.01 for a 3.18 
test, considerably better in either case 
than the dealer’s price of $1.95 and $1.90 
for Api’il and May respectively. North 
Pitcher creamery paid the unusual price 
of $2,441 for April milk and $2,245 for 
May milk. 
In a list of prices paid for these two 
mouths by 20 different Central New York 
creameries every one paid more than the 
shipping station prices. Farmei-s feel 
that October 1 should see a decided in¬ 
crease in contract pi'ices for New York 
City milk, and they are anxious that 
the Dairymen’s League shall exhibit 
more backbone when it comes to price 
regulations at the next contract time, 
although the rank and file took the mat¬ 
ter quietly. Still the let-down in price 
finally agreed to at the time of the April 
contracts was a bitter disappointment to 
up-State producers, as they knew the 
prices first arrranged for were no more 
than their just due. Later developments 
in feed prices proved this to be most em¬ 
phatically true, and only the fact that 
the business with hundreds of them. 
Farmers feel that in war times six 
months is too long a period to contract 
for milk—as it is impossible to forsee 
conditions so far ahead—shorter term 
contracts, will he fairer to all concerned. 
Corn will he a very late crop unless 
frost holds off unusually late in the Fall. 
The constant deluges of rain in June 
made planting almost impossible in many 
sections and cultivation out of the ques¬ 
tion in nearly all parts of the dairy sec¬ 
tions. The past few hot days have helped 
it greatly and given a chance for cultiva¬ 
tion, Iliaying is much delayed in the 
same sections, nothing of any amount be¬ 
ing done to secure the crop until this, 
the last week in July. The yield is fall*, 
somewhat under normal. The pea crop 
is rapidly being secured by the canner¬ 
ies, the crop being 70% of normal. The 
vines have had to be sacrificed by those 
farmers who did not have silos as there 
was too much rain to cure early pea 
hay, which is highly priced for milk 
cows. p. 
“I CANNA get over it,” a Scotch farmer 
remarked to his wife. “I put a twa-shil- 
liu’ piece in the plate at the kirk this 
morning instead o’ ma usual penny.” 
The beadle had noticed the mistake, and 
in silence he allowed the farmer to miss 
the plate for twenty-three consecutive 
'Sunday.s. On the twenty-fourth Sunday 
the farmer again ignored the plate, but 
the old beadle stretched the ladle in front 
of him and in a loud, tragic whisper 
hoarsely said: “Your time’s up noo, San¬ 
dy.”/—Ladies’ Home Journal.
